Highly Trained and Professional

Today’s toastmasters are highly trained and professional Masters of Ceremonies at both informal and formal functions. They provide much more than the mere introduction of the top table and speakers.
This Toastmaster works at weddings, a variety of formal and informal occasions, private parties, and conferences. He is also a lunch and dinner speaker and provides training for speeches and presentations.

A Relaxed, Fine-Tuned Event

This Toastmaster brings to every occasion that special blend of relaxed, unflappable and discreet control - he makes sure that the pre-determined needs of the hosts are met by liaising with banqueting managers, caterers, speakers, and entertainers - allowing the hosts to enjoy the occasion with their guests.

He works regularly around the North West, and from the Midlands up to the Scottish Borders, also further afield within the UK and abroad, by special arrangement.

Guidance on Speech Giving

For those giving speeches, help and guidance can be given if required.
For people already nervous about making a speech the toastmaster will relieve them of having to announce the order of the day to the guests as well. This means that the bridal party can relax and enjoy the celebrations; safe in the knowledge that someone has an eye on the clock, the formalities and the guests.
